Your battery is drained for sure, pop the two covers off the top of it and see how much fluid is in each cell, if there down add a little water to bring the level back up the the line the manufacture put on the side. If all the cells are full chances are your alternator is dead, if your into doing the replacement your self the alternator is probably only going to be around $150-$200

bad battery. you may need to replace it. clean the battery connections, and check the sparkplugs as well.
